Chapter 169 Do you want to get out of your current life?(2/2)
It was not until lunch on the fifth day that everyone took a boat back to land and then took a bus to the airport to return to Gusu.
...
...
Netherlands, Amsterdam.
There is a large old dock in the west of the port, known as the "ADM area", which is the largest occupied area in the Netherlands.
It has been occupied since 2000, with a large number of artists and bankrupt homeless people living in it.
And in Western countries, artists and homeless people are equated!
Recently, government employees and journalists often come to the ADM area. It is said that the government intends to demolish the old dock, which has caused panic here.
Rex Addison divorced due to bankruptcy and eventually left the streets, homeless, and survived by receiving relief funds.
Addison wanted to cheer up, but he had no choice. He owed a lot of money. Once he chose to work, most of his income had to be used to pay off his debts.
So in the foreseeable future, his wandering life will continue for a long time.
As the house was leaking, it was raining all night, and the old dock where it lived was going to be demolished.
Addison felt extremely depressed when he thought of starting to wander in the street market again.
"Mr. Rex Addison?"
When Addison heard someone calling his name and was lying on a straw mat to take a nap, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at him.
The sun at noon was too dazzling, not to mention that Marlow was still myopic, he could only vaguely see the outline of the other person. He was a strong man, and next to him, there seemed to be a secretary-like man holding a briefcase in his hand.
Addison sat up, reached out to fumble on the ground, and touched the glasses that were missing a leg. He stretched the glasses to the bridge of his nose, then put the coil on his ears, and finally saw the other person's appearance clearly.
Both of them are white, with a high nose and deep eyes, a typical Northwest European appearance, and they are wearing suits and ties. The straight suit can tell at a glance that it is of great value.
Such people are either government employees or senior bank employees.
Addison stood up and asked, "Do you have anything to do with me?"
In his impression, people who have not dressed up like this have come to him for nearly two years.
One of the strong white men reached out and smiled, "Hello Mr. Addison, my name is Jack Noyce, I want to talk to you about something."
Addison shook hands with Neus and said with a hint of vigilance: "What do you want to talk to me? You have also seen my situation. There is nothing worthy of your coveting."
"Of course, we know very well what Mr. Addison is facing, and that's what we're here to come to you today," Noyce said.
Addison frowned and said, "What the hell do you mean?"
Noyce said: "Okay, then I'll just talk! As far as we know, Mr. Addison has been engaged in the research and development of lithium batteries before. He is a senior engineer and has a deep understanding of lithium batteries."
Addison said self-deprecatingly: "What kind of senior engineer? I am just an ordinary engineer. I only develop some very ordinary products, so I can't say I know much about it."
If you really are a senior engineer as the other party said, and some large companies are willing to hire him, how could you become a homeless person?
A strange smile appeared on the corner of Noyce's mouth and said, "From now on, you are a senior engineer! No, you should be a senior engineer who is not well received!"
Addison wondered, "What do you mean?"
Neus asked, "Do you want to get rid of your current life? Do you want to relive your old dreams with your wife who is working in the red light district? Do you want your child to go to private school? If you want, come with me."
After saying that, Noyce turned around and left with his assistant.
Since the divorce, Neus hasn't heard about his wife for a long time.
But I never expected that the woman I once loved deeply went to work in the red light district.
He was in great pain.
Tears slowly rolled down the lenses.
Without even taking the luggage, Rex Addison followed Jack Noyce's footsteps and left the ADM area where he had lived for nearly a year.
...
Five days later, the Netherlands established a solid-state battery research institute called "Astra". The head of this research institute was Rex Addison.
Ten days later, Astra Solid State Battery Research Institute announced on the Internet that after ten years of dedicated research by Rex Addison, it finally made significant progress in the field of solid-state battery research.
There are very few introductions on what Rex Addison has studied in PPT, and there is no specific progress made. It just popularized the concept of solid-state batteries.
What can you run 1,000 kilometers by charging once? It only takes 15 minutes to charge and can resist low temperatures...
Anyway, it is to blow the solid-state battery he has studied so that there is no underground.
The rest are basically about Rex Addison's personal life introduction, which is very sensational.
It is said that he graduated from the Dutch Polytechnic University and failed to complete his studies due to his personality defects.
After dropping out of school, he joined a lithium battery development company and has since developed a strong interest in solid-state batteries.
While working, he studied solid-state batteries, and later started his own business.
However, due to his personality defects, the company eventually went bankrupt, owed huge debts, divorced his wife and children, and became a homeless man.
But Rex Addison did not give up on his research on solid-state batteries. He has always been persistent, writing countless calculation formulas on park lounge chairs, on bridge cave stone walls, and on waste cardboard in old docks.
In the end, he made a breakthrough...
A strong smell of chicken soup.
After the news was sent, it caused a lot of heated discussion in the Netherlands.
People are not interested in solid-state batteries. They are more concerned about Rex Addison's experience. They are very legendary and conform to the values of European and American people.
At the same time, the insider just wanted to laugh after seeing the news.
Not to mention the reports of Astra Solid State Battery Research Institute, there are almost no related technologies about solid-state batteries, and they don’t believe them even if they have them.
Solid-state batteries involve many difficult problems, including the shackles of materials science. They cannot be solved by writing a computing company in a bridge hole. At most, this kind of thing is to deceive laymen.
An inexplicable person suddenly emerged and made a breakthrough. What international joke?
However, just as everyone agreed that this was just Rex Addison's sensationalism. Half a month later, Astra Solid State Battery Research Institute announced again that it had received a strategic investment of US$10 million in an overseas company.
When those insiders in the Netherlands and new energy company owners saw this news, they almost vomited blood.
Some investors would believe this scam that even a fool can see?
They are also studying a hammer's power battery?
